Alberto Giacometti életében
A teljes életút1940s
The war: refuge in Switzerland
He spent the years of the Second World War in Switzerland, living in Geneva.
1949
Married: Annette Giacometti
c. 1949
After the wedding the figures grow, yet grow thinner
After his marriage his tiny sculptures became larger, but the larger they grew, the thinner they became; for the rest of his life Annette was his main female model. His paintings changed in parallel: continually reworked, the figures appear isolated and severely attenuated.
1951
Francis Ponge writes about him in Cahiers d’Art
The writer Francis Ponge wrote an article on Giacometti, published in the Paris journal Cahiers d’Art, that vividly captured the existential side of his work. In the post-war years many, including Sartre and Genet, hailed Giacometti as an outstanding existentialist artist.
